Our delegation of hunters returned
from the Territory on the 10Th. Of the
booty and spoils they gathered 5 deers
and some smaller game. The other
night Mr.. TOmblisOn discovered skunk
In his cellar-they are commonly called
polecat because its not convenient to

Switzer opened fire on the fragrant
visitor with double barrel shotgun,
but he escaped by taking refuge in the
stone wall. thus making himself too
much Of a "Stonewall Jackson" for
them. But oh! the perfume. l sup
pose that there has been a full score
of them killed during the fall in and
around MingOna, and yet our chickens
nightly disappear. showing that their
ghosts are won't to return and waste
their sweetness on the desert air..
Rev. William Smith talks of moving
into MingOna. We should be glad in
deed TO have him do so. ;. Application
has been recently made to one of our
leading citizens for dwelling house
and store room to be occupied by a
physician as a residence and the store
room he wishes to be large enough to
hold full line of drugs which he in
tends to open up in our town. Good
for Mingonia. The rumbling dawn of
of the future boom is beginning to be
felt. The little ripples are reaching the
shore. d. In letter recently received
from Il. n. Spivey, general agent for
Arkansas Valley town company, he
gives us good encouragement that he
will make us proposition to take hold
of our town in. the spring. A history
of our town organization together with
plat, names of officers. ETC., have been
forwarded to him and in two recent
communications from him we have
some flattering assurances that they
contemplate looking up of the Situa-
tiOn here. We expect from the tone
of his last letter that the iron will be
laid on the railroad in the spring. The
brethren in council on Saturday decided
to close our Sunday school until spring.
80. On Sunday we had fine sermon by
Elder Joseph Click, from Pratt county.
Text: Yet is he not crowned except
he strive lawfully. "-2nd Tim. 2: 5.
Two or three assertions which he made
were somewhat startling. He said
"thsre is more infidelity in the church
than is outside" Some he said,
were not only inidel3 but infdelity
themselves. " ''lnfidelitv is only the con-
verse of fidelity and every one who
lacks fidelity is in that measure an
infidel." CORNER STORE.

Lets Do Something.

1t would be good idea for the busi-
ness men and property owners of this
city to meet as soon in January as pos
sible aud reSurTect the board of trade.
That organization can do a vast good
for Barber county, If it had proper en-
enlargement, and it should be the aim
of every one interested in the prosperity
of this community to become member.
The coming year promises to be an i'm
pOrtant one for our people.
At least two lines of railroad are de-
sirOus of coming here.
Parties are already figuring on locat-
ing gympsum works here.
There is much talk of boring a pros
pecting hole for oil, gas, coal or any
thing that may be found.
Some system of water works must be
provided.
A grist mill should be built here with
out further delay.
An electric light plant should be en-
couraged.
More school room must be provided
for the children.
A fair and agricultural association
should be organized.
In short, there may come up for the
consideration of our people dozens of
enterprises that will call for united ac-
ton. n board of trade, composed of
representative citizens should be in
working trim to act ut moments
notice. There is no money in it for any
member who may be selected as an
officer or director; but no one should re.
fuse TO give at least part Of his time for
the public good.

FOR YOU!

~A u WI
This is the season when you
must have dry goods, boots
and shoes, clothing and gro
ceries for your family. 1t is a
time when it is popular to ad.
vertise goods at cost, and &C.
casionally some over-enthusi-
astic merchant offers to sell
below cost. The result of such
departures frequently proves
as disastrous to the merchant
as unsatisfactory to the buyer.
The old and well-known firm
of StandI10Td, Youmans d
EIdTed, as heretofore, prefer
to pursue an even, conserva.
tive course, and continue
from year in to year out to be
satisfied with reasonable prof
its, and at the same time sell
a superior class of merchand-
ize. This firm buys in large
quantities, for CASH, and is
particular to have no Cheap
John bargains" They have
spent more than a decade i'm
building up a trade here, and
this trade they are holding
against all meteoric competi.
ton. BY fair dealing, honest
weights, full measurements,
and a desire to continue in
the business. they hope to add
many new customers to their
already large list. They have
the interests of Barber county
at heart, and have shown their
faith in it's future by adding
to its material prosperity in
every way possible.
Their present stock of gen.
eral merchandise is larger, by
far, than any stock west of
Wichita, and it is new and
first-class throughout, selected
for this market, and not be-
cause it was cheap.
Those who need anything
in the line of Clothing, Dress
Goods, Blankets, Boots, Shoes,
Rubber Goods, Notions ; or
those who want Groceries,
Flour, Meal, Meats, or, in fact,
anything to eat, will find that
it will be to their interest to
give this old, reliable firm a
trial, if they have not hereto
fore done so.
Any way, call in and exam
inc their stock, and get &C
quainted with their way of
doing business. You will re-
ceive good treatment, whether
you buy OF not.
Remember the place!
